No the issue here is the Fleet-in-being and massed carrier tactics that were doctrine sound in WW2 are no longer relevant in the contemporary era.
A new carrier has a $32 billion lifetime cost and then they need destroyers, frigates and other screens (billions more) and it can take years to construct this. For the same price, I can invest in more strategic aircraft and supersonic anti-ship missiles and it doesn't take years to build them.
As well there's a market for reselling aircraft and missiles... old naval vessels.. not a whole lot, although Angola supposedly bought an aircraft carrier months ago
